I love not being bombarded by ads thanks to pihole and adblockers. I don’t have cable TV either. But without browsing netlifx/Hulu/etc. how do you actually find stuff to watch and discover worthwhile shows and movies to rent from my library?

    That’s what is mainstream popular. How do you find stuff you actually like ?

    Is it impossible to like mainstream stuff?

        Movies can be liked irrespective of their mainstreamness.

          …and that’s why the person you originally replied to asked their question. General popularity is generally a bad proxy metric for personal preference.

            Popular movies are more likely to be liked than random movies. How can you not see that?
